WARNING
Follow EHS Policies!
Failure to follow instructions below could result in
death or serious injury.
•
All Trane personnel must follow the company’s
Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS) policies
when performing work such as hot work, electrical,
fall protection, lockout/tagout, refrigerant handling,
etc. Where local regulations are more stringent than
these policies, those regulations supersede these
policies.
•
Non-Trane personnel should always follow local
regulations.
WARNING
Conform to All Applicable National, State,
and Local Electrical Codes!
Failure to follow all applicable codes could result in an
arc flash event, electrocution, explosion, or fire, which
could result in death or serious injury. Users MUST
conform to all applicable national, state, and local
electrical codes during the electrical installation and
servicing of this product.
WARNING
Refrigerant under High Pressure!
Failure to follow instructions below could result in an
explosion which could result in death or serious injury
or equipment damage. System contains oil and
refrigerant under high pressure. Recover refrigerant to
relieve pressure before opening the system. See unit
nameplate for refrigerant type. Do not use non-
approved refrigerants, refrigerant substitutes, or
refrigerant additives.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Failure to disconnect power and discharge capacitors
before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
Disconnect all electric power, including remote
disconnects and discharge all motor start/run
capacitors before servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be
inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives
or other energy storing components provided by Trane
or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s
literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of
capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all
capacitors have discharged.
For additional information regarding the safe discharge
of capacitors, see PROD-SVB06*-EN.
NOTICE
Excessive Cable Lengths Between AFDR
Drive and Compressor Motor!
Trane assumes no responsibility for equipment damage
caused by use of improper cable lengths. The variable
frequency drive industry recommends that the length
of the electrical cables connecting a drive unit to a
motor should be kept to less than 250 feet to protect
the motor from reflected voltage waves that can cause
the motor to fail. Cable lengths that exceed 250 feet
between the drive and the motor create the potential
for damage to occur to the motor windings and/or
insulation.
